I mean its a cool idea. Just incredibly poorly thought out to tell the women's march organizers to organize it.

 

I get what he meant by it. He worded that very poorly.

 

Rome forces migrants to work unpaid for asylum

 

You're right, I wouldn't want the people who put together such a successful, powerful, energizing day of protest to put any more demonstrations together either.

 

Those replies did not disappoint

 

This is slavery. Fucking disgusting.

 

Ironically there's a conservative boycott against the NFL for being too liberal/PC

 

I was thinking this wtf

 

Yeah I mean I'm still reeling from the sheer hypocritical whiplash of the NCAA trying to take the moral high ground on any issues, let alone the NFL doing so.

 

I give it a couple weeks before a Republican tries to do it here

 

Well I know to become a resident in most countries as an immigrant you have to "be an active member in the community" and work and stuff but this just doesn't seem the same.

 

Ted Cruz would do it in a heartbeat

 

A girl I know already lost her insurance and cant get the prescriptions she needs. She just moved to Florida permanently with her bf, perhaps a bad choice.

 

I'm not denying that at all, of course. I guess I am just curious how that is being shown in the content of this particular article in question, as her previous one actually said similar things (specifically said sexy and fashionable) about Michelle Obama. And I read her Twitter feed and she praised many WOC singers & actresses for their look as well. So if I've glossed over something in the article, or am being stupid here, I am incredibly sorry.

 

omg
@Dominick @Wharf Rat

A baby named Trump and admiration for a new U.S. president in northern Iraq

 

i'm so sorry! i know i'm really worried about medicaid ;_;

 

I just think it is strange/terrible to objectify a woman, then, only two days after our first black First Lady leaves the White House , to say this white woman is the first attractive woman to inhabit that house.

 

Yea totally agreed there.

 

I mean, in that case how about "I wouldn't want to detract from the meaning of a march in support of the female gender, and the platform they created which held pretty progressive stances on a bunch of issues by equivocating it with a march about our shithead-in-chief's taxes that are literally going to tell us what we already know."

Either way, as others said, in very poor taste, imo. It doesn't read as "props for an amazing job", but rather "alright now keep on going".
